This recipe calls for the original Baileys Irish Cream liqueur. There’s even a dairy-free offering now, entirely suitable for vegans. The Baileys range has expanded over recent years and includes exciting new flavours such as salted caramel, orange truffle and a rich chocolate version. It’s a great liqueur to sip upon just as it is, shake into cocktails or to add to home bakes. The blend of Irish whisky, cream, chocolate and vanilla is sublime. I’m sure you’re familiar with Baileys Irish Cream, but just to clarify, this liqueur was created in 1974 in Dublin, Ireland. Try it with a slice of Baileys Irish coffee cake for the ultimate Baileys Irish cream indulgence. The children can’t have it! This one is just for the adults (sorry/ not sorry kids).The Baileys whipped cream adds an extra element of interest (and deliciousness) to this drink.

The recipe is quick and simple to make – it’s ready in 5-10 minutes.Why hot chocolate with Baileys is worth making Make no mistake, this hot chocolate with Baileys is a sweet drink to fall in love with over and over again. That’s cream that has a dash of Irish cream blended into it. I’ve chosen to top this Irish hot chocolate with some Baileys whipped cream.

I learned while making lavender lemon eclairs that lavender steeps beautifully in cream, so I used that technique to created a lavender whipped cream that had a distinctive but not overpowering flavor. I didn’t have any violet extract, but I DID have lavender buds, which got my brain ticking. It is labeled “ALL THE CREAMS” and lists several strange creams, including violet cream. Then I remembered Storeroom #54, which the children and their guardians pass during their tour of Wonka’s factory. It needed some pizzazz, something creative and fun to set it apart from all the other whipped creams. So when I decided I was going to do an all-dessert, all-chocolate menu for my new book of the month-Charlie and the Chocolate Factory-I knew I wanted my tribute to Willy Wonka’s hot chocolate river to feature fresh whipped cream. It’s the perfect fresh, bright, cool companion to a rich and steamy chocolate drink. First, let’s just be real: hot chocolate is what fresh whipped cream was invented for.
